Have you been denying yourself the convenience of fast food because you were trying to lose weight or choose healthy foods? Thanks to new menu innovations at McDonald's, there are lots of lower calorie wholesome choices for everyone in the family. According Neva Cochran, registered dietitian nutritionist and consultant to McDonald's, "Even those on special diets can eat from all the food groups and customize meals to meet their needs at McDonald's. In fact about 80 percent of the national menu items contain fewer than 400 calories with many meal combinations under 600 calories."
